Everybody's Talkin' Lyrics
Everybody's talkin' 'bout me
But I don't hear a word they're sayin'
Only the echoes in my mind
Everybody stops to starin'
But I don't even see their faces
Only the shadows of their eyes
I'm goin' where the sun keeps shinin'
Through a pourin' rain
Going where the weather suits my clothes
Bankin' off the northeast wind
And sailin' on summer breeze
Skippin' over the ocean like a stone
Everybody's talkin' 'bout me
But I don't hear a word they're sayin'
Only the echoes of my mind
Everybody stops to starin'
But I don't even see their faces
Only the shadows of their eyes
But I won't let you leave my love behind
I won't let you leave my love behind
I won't let you leave my love behind
But I don't hear a word they're sayin'
Only the echoes in my mind
Everybody stops to starin'
But I don't even see their faces
Only the shadows of their eyes
I'm goin' where the sun keeps shinin'
Through a pourin' rain
Going where the weather suits my clothes
Bankin' off the northeast wind
And sailin' on summer breeze
Skippin' over the ocean like a stone
But I don't hear a word they're sayin'
Only the echoes of my mind
Everybody stops to starin'
But I don't even see their faces
Only the shadows of their eyes
But I won't let you leave my love behind
I won't let you leave my love behind
I won't let you leave my love behind

The lyrics describe a person who is feeling overwhelmed by the constant chatter of people around them and is seeking to escape to a place where they can find peace and solitude.
The imagery of going to where the sun is shining, sailing on a summer breeze, and skipping over the ocean like a stone all suggest a desire for freedom and a sense of release from the pressures of daily life.
The repetition of the phrase "Everybody's talkin' at me" emphasizes the feeling of being drowned out by the noise of others.
